London comedy: Schaffer's American Guide to England - Leicester Square Theatre, March 17 - April 21

New York stand-up Lewis Schaffer has been playing his Free Until Famous show in London for ages – it is the town’s longest running solo comedy show.

But the ‘until’ part of this has now come true, and the erstwhile humourist has, as he puts it, his first ‘paid shows’ coming up, the aforementioned Yankee’s guide to Blighty (which he freely admits includes Scotland and Wales, and often Ireland as well).

He’ll be teaching the Brits, and other expats, about Britishness, with his trademark US-led rhetoric.
